program in NCAA modern era to reclassify directly from D-III to D-I athletics

Athletics
Proud Past, Bright Future
Find your spot in this massive moment. Starting in 2021, you will have access to plenty of Division I sports teams, and we’ll need you to bring the noise and help us create new traditions. Our Tommies will be competing for opportunities to ball, puck, swim and succeed on the national stage and show people what our university is all about.
While our academics have always been D-I, we’ll need the full St. Thomas community to be loud, clear and heard across the country. Athletics events and pre- and post-game traditions are shared with all Tommies as a great way to meet new friends and unite across majors, classes and residence halls. We’re making history – join us!
